Apparently it is to a fair-sized chunk of tumblr. In their defense, the ones yelling about how there should be no law enforcement whatsoever are mostly young teens who generally haven't been involved in the various social justice movements long enough to really appreciate nuance or practicality. Hopefully, they'll learn as they go along. However, I can't say I have the same amount of hope for the ones who are old/experienced enough to know better.

It depends what you're talking about somewhat.

If you're talking about ACAB or prison abolitionism, I don't think that either of those really equates to total absence of law enforcement either. And obviously you have your actual-factual anarchists, but those people are (a) rare and (b) usually have somewhat coherent theoretical defenses of their position. Even though I don't personally agree with them (or with prison abolitionism).

If you want to talk about blanket, naive, uncritical, silly "get rid of all laws and law enforcement", I think it's much more a caricature, not a common thing. Responding to any criticism of law enforcement by reducing it to that is bad and silly.
